my first Holy GRail. - Thornburg - 2015-09-12
Most went ok. something weird happened a few minutes in with QDSLR. the image keep ramping every frame, destroyed half of my Lapse.Thankfully learned a lot the first time. Will only perfect each time im out.

The hard part is finding a pollution free area in the East of the USA.. and a place your gear is safe.
I still need help with 4K format. I am having to use to Davinci Resolve, debating on buy this or sticking with Adobe's sell out product! I personally think cloud base software is shit!!
RE: my first Holy GRail. - Gunther - 2015-09-13
Ramping every frame? That should not happen. Make sure to NOT set "Auto direction" to on and have a proper exposure when you start.
My optinion is, that if you use LRTimelapse with Lightroom (where you don't need to use the cloud!) - can do the grading too, no need to use Davici then.
RE: my first Holy GRail. - Thornburg - 2015-09-13
Thank you for the reply Gunther. I did hit the auto direction button twice. I wasn't sure what that function did did. The effect was cool but destroyed my sequence. I only have your tutorial on un using qsdlr. Wonder if there is a manual for it and LRT addon?
I am only considering Davinci because I am never going cloud with software. I also love their color grading.
Can you share settings that was used on African Skies 2? That was some of the best time lapse I have seen and I have been in love with the format for 40 years now. I want to perfect my Images like that.
Waiting for your Hyper LApse tutorial... keep up the Great work!!

Hi Amon,
there is no special settings I use when editing, I just do the keyframe editing in LR and export in ProRes from LRTimelapse.
Regarding qDDB: there is a nice documentation on http://dslrdashboard.info

Hello Gunther
Got busy with work and never got to try the LRT pro trial. I got some more time lapse seq, but it was very foggy after 30 hours of rain. Hunting my perfect holy grail is now worse than a drug addiction. It almost makes me wanna move back west for perfect night skies!!
Can you recommend a tripod that will hold my 6' stage zero slider and stage r with canon 6d?
RE: my first Holy GRail. - Gunther - 2015-10-15
I'd go to a camera store and check some tripods - there are a lot of good tripods around that are sturdy and not too expensive. I like to ones from Sirui for example.
